Summary:

"Confessions offers an insight into the mind of Future Systems architect Jan Kaplicky - his ideas, opinions and sources of inspiration. It is a book about an architectural life, private and professional. Written and selected by the architect himself, it is a highly personal account that avoids the speculations and intellectualisations of critical theory. This is a collection of comments on architects, architecture, design, politics, beauty, people and the future and will give architects stimulus about workings of practice, building and design. With an equal balance of images and textual observations, it is both visually and mentally engaging, and its spontaneous, honest style makes it accessible to a wide audience."--Jacket.
